v The server supports three standard and three optional 1-inch (26 mm) slim-high,
3.5-inch, hot-swap hard disk drives in the hot-swap bays. The standard hot-swap
bays are bays 1 through 3 (from bottom to top). The optional hot-swap bays are
bays 4 through 6 (from bottom to top). Bays 1 through 3 are located in the
standard hard disk drive cage, to the left of bays 4 through 6 in the optional hard
disk drive cage.
Note: The server does not support half-high hot-swap drives or internal tape
drives.
v The hot-swap bays connect to a hot-swap drive backplane. The backplane is a
printed circuit board behind the bays.
